"The' strawberry social goes on every year at The Livery parking lot and there's no problem lending the tables," said Mayor Eileen Palmer. But, Coun. Jim Searls said he saw a problem. "There's going to be a lot of people up town that day and they're going to want a place to eat lunch," he said. Council agreed to lend the tables and in- form the Livery out of courtesy in case of a conflict. The town is leasing the 'Livery's parking lot for the next five years. A letter from Connie Osborn requesting the tables said the group still needs to raise $1000 for its trip.

Cameron taught first in the one room school at Belfast and came to Brookside when it opened in 1967. Since then he has been vice principal, has taught Grade 8, taught music throughout the school and coordinated the Brookside concerts each year. To the tune of "Lucille", the staff sang verses composed by custodian Herb Wilkins, resident -poet at Brookside. Prin- cipal Don Tremeer spoke of Cameron's con- tributions to the school and of his apprecia- tion for his help. He was presented with a gold-plated exacto knife (a reminder of one he always carries in his pocket) and a watch and money clip. Cameron thanked those present and reviewed some memories of his teaching career. Former principals of Brookside, Angus MacLennan, Bill Black and Gary Jewitt were present and added their con- gratulations to Cameron on his retirement. He will certainly be missed at Brookside but we all wish him health and happiness for many years to come. Howard Blake, secretary at Brookside, has been do hospital in London following surgery. We wish him a swift recovery. Sandra Machan of Brussels is supplying in the office for the month of June.
